The statement said that the SCRWWO has come up with a noble initiative of offering internship courses in social service for interested college students.
SCRWWO president Dr Jaya Mohan and its executive members organised an orientation programme in this regard on Tuesday at Asha Kiran Centre here.
The internship course includes interactive sessions for 4 to 6 weeks with differently abled students belonging to different age groups at Asha Kiran Centre.
